Note the key change towards the end of the track.
Any feedback, comments, criticism, rating, etc would be very welcome as this would help me ensure that all
the TABs I post are as complete and accurate as possible.

[Intro]
Dm C G x4

[Verse 1]
Em Am Em Am
Oh, my friend loneliness, where have you been
Bm C G F C
You left to the lure of the lover who left me alone
Em Am Em Am
Now you've come crawling back, and I'll let you in
Bm C G F C
And we'll slip back into grooves that we cut in ourselves long ago

[Chorus]
C Dm C G
But there must be a better half, somewhere out there
Dm C G
She lives a better life, a life that shares
Dm C G Dm C G
Shares with a better man, a man who is there when she calls in the night
Dm C G
Who says hey it's alright

[Verse 2]
Em Am Em Am
Oh my dear distance, I've met you before
Bm C G F C
Longing for a lover who's lost on a far distant shore
Em Am Em Am
Oh my imperfections, are all that remain
Bm C G F C
The days when I'd love you and I'd leave you and you'd wish that I would stay

[Chorus]
C Dm C G
But there must be a better half, somewhere out there
Dm C G
She lives a better life, a life that shares
Dm C G Dm C G
Shares with a better man, a man who is there when she calls in the night
Dm C G
Who says hey it's alright

[Bridge]
E F E F
I know what she looks like, her face and her skin, her smell and the rest
E F C Bb F
I know the feel of her soul but God help me I just cannot find her address
C Gm F C Gm F
Oh I've how I've tried but now all that is left is my old friend distance and sweet loneliness

[Chorus] (different from the others)
C Gm F C
There must be a better half, somewhere out there
Gm F C
She lives a better life, a life that shares
Gm F C Gm F C
Shares with a better man, a man who is there when she calls in the night
Gm F C Gm F C Gm F C
Who says hey it's alright, hey it's alright, hey it's alright

[Ending]
Gm F C x2
